It's gonna be nasty weather on Saturday night whose run game is the strongest?

It's gonna be nasty weather on Saturday night whose run game is the strongest?

I would say Memphis is better at running, but Memphis has 34 passes more than they have carries. Houston has 3 more pass attemps than they have carries.

Houston is better at stopping the run.
